More quotes by Bernie Taupin
Lincolnshire is the Idaho of England. You were either going to drive a tractor for the rest of your life or head for the city to work in a factory.
Bernie Taupin
Elton John's home is laden with trinkets and books relating to Satanism and witchcraft.
Bernie Taupin
My favorite thing is coming up with titles. The majority of the songs I've every written I've always thought of the title before I've written the song.
Bernie Taupin
Basically it takes me very little time to write a song. If I find myself taking more than an hour to do it I usually forget it, and try something else. I like to work quickly I never like to waste any time. I never write half a song and come back to it later at all. It all has to be done at once. I lose interest if it doesn't.
Bernie Taupin
My Mother set me on the right track, Marty Robbins made me want to write songs, and Jesus Christ did the rest.
Bernie Taupin
Early risers catch the world waking and see its true colors.
